1.Written, signed, dated and ethics committee approved informed consent obtained from subjects and/or legally acceptable representative, along with the audio-video recording of the process, before performing any screening procedures
2.Male or non-pregnant females of age 18 to 65 years [both inclusive] with chronic open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in both eyes on stable ocular hypotensive treatment regimen
3.Subject requires treatment of both eyes and is able to discontinue use of all ocular hypotensive medication(s) or switch ocular hypotensive medications and undergo appropriate washout period
4.Adequate wash-out period prior to baseline of any ocular hypotensive medication (see Table 1). In order to minimize potential risk to patients due to IOP elevations during the washout period, investigator may choose to substitute a parasympathomimetic or carbonic anhydrase inhibitor in place of a sympathomimetic, alpha-agonist, beta-adrenergic blocking agent, or prostaglandin; however, all patients must have discontinued all ocular hypotensive medication for the minimum washout period provided in Table 1.
5.Baseline (Day 0/hour 0) IOP >= 22 mm Hg and <= 34 mm Hg in each eye and any asymmetry of IOP between the eyes which is no greater than 5 mm Hg.
6.Baseline best corrected visual acuity equivalent to 20/200 or better in each eye.
1.Females who are pregnant, breast feeding, or planning a pregnancy.
2.Females of childbearing potential who do not agree to utilize an adequate form of contraception.
3.Current or past history of severe hepatic or renal impairment.
4.Current or history of significant ocular disease within two months prior to baseline e.g., corneal edema, uveitis, ocular infection, or ocular trauma in either eye.
5.Current corneal abnormalities that would prevent accurate IOP readings with the Goldmann applanation tonometer.
6.Functionally significant visual field loss.
7.Contraindication to brinzolamide or sulfonamide therapy or known hypersensitivity to any component of brinzolamide or sulfonamide therapy.
8.Use of intraocular corticosteroid implant at any time prior to baseline.
9.Use of contact lens within one week prior to baseline.
10.Use of: a) topical ophthalmic corticosteroid, or b) topical corticosteroid within two weeks prior to baseline.
11.Use of: a) systemic corticosteroid or b) high-dose salicylate therapy within one month prior to baseline.
12.Use of intravitreal or subtenon injection of ophthalmic corticosteroid within six months prior to baseline.
13.Performance of any other intraocular surgery (e.g., cataract surgery) within six months prior to baseline
14.Performance of refractive surgery, filtering surgery or laser surgery for IOP reduction within twelve months prior to baseline
15.History of alcohol, chemical or drug abuse or dependence as per DSM IV criteria
16.Serologic positivity for the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), Hepatitis C virus (HCV) or Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)
17.Current active malignancy or history of malignancy within the past five years
18.Any other clinically significant abnormal medical condition that in the Investigators judgement would put the patient at increased risk of illness or injury would interfere with study participation or would interfere with the evaluation or quality of the data.
